Better Cause

8 West is a social enterprise program that trains youth as artisans to develop sustainable work skills. In partnership with Urban Street Angels, our artisans are creating brighter futures while making all natural, organic soaps.

Our Soap

Our soap is handcrafted by the artisans we train in the traditional, small-batch, cold-pressed process that produces better soaps – and better futures. Our all-natural, organic soaps are made with local ingredients that smell great and soften your skin – all while going towards a great cause.

Our Artisans

When you buy a bar of 8 West soap, you’re helping homeless youth get off the streets and into brighter futures. These youth are our artisans, who learn the traditional, small-batch, cold-pressed process that produces better soap. Our model helps transitional-age youth off the streets and into sustainable employment and housing.
